Abstract :
For the wide spread integration of web-based teaching and learning scenarios, a simple handling of the e-Learning applications is a key issue. For the Learning Management System (LMS) OPAL the problem was analyzed regarding the user-friendliness. To enable the author to work productively and efficiently, course preparation and course update templates with dynamic content are introduced. Afterwards the general benefit of the use of templates is presented.
